Introduced and handed to a committee in the chamber it started in.

The committee holds it, and most bills are never heard from again. A hearing or a committee vote would be news; silence is the usual outcome, and it kills the bill without anyone voting against it.

Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced
  2. In Committee

A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

House Resolution 1367 honors the efforts of people in Kansas City, Missouri, Kansas, and nearby communities for preparing the region for the World Cup. It recognizes that Kansas City is the smallest of the 11 selected U.S. cities. The resolution credits first responders, public works, transportation officials, and volunteers for creating a safe and accessible environment. It also commends small businesses, teams, schools, and officials for their dedication. Finally, it affirms that global events will not always be held in American megacities.
